Joan Vassos’s journey for love came to an end. On the live finale episode of The Golden Bachelorette, she revealed that she chose Chock Chapple. This might not have been shocking, as Chock had been a clear frontrunner since the start.
However, it wasn’t always clear whether the two would connect. Chock briefly left the show after learning his mom had passed away, but he returned to the mansion with a newfound confidence. Some fans thought Chock would get the villain edit because of his behavior during the group dates. But he was able to win Joan’s heart. Fans reacted to the finale and Joan’s choice.
On the Wednesday, November 13th episode, Joan had a difficult decision to make. She had to choose between her two final men, Chock Chapple and Guy Gansert. But she was still dealing with the heartbreak she felt. Pascal Ibgui ended his overnight date with Joan. He told her that he didn’t feel any love for her. (See What Pascal Said About His Shocking Exit.)
Joan healed with a visit from her family. She was ready to choose her man, but first, she had to break the news to one of them. Joan showed up at Guy’s door. He was elated to see her. She admitted to him that she only had feelings for one man. Unfortunately, he wasn’t the man for her.
To add insult to injury, Guy stood out in the pouring rain. He watched Joan walk away. She had to get ready for her meeting with Chock. He was going to pop the question to her on the beach.

The viewers took to X, formerly Twitter, to share their thoughts on Joan’s choice. Reaction was mixed. Some fans were ecstatic to see Joan and Chock end up together. They felt that it was a satisfying ending to her journey for love.
“A beautiful ending in Bora Bora. They took a cruise all around the Polynesian during the last few days & Chock proposed to Joan, and she said YES,” one fan wrote.
However, other fans questioned Joan’s feelings for Chock. Some called their relationship “fake” and “forced.” One user noted, “It was so obvious Chock was Joan’s man, but I like Guy so much more. He seems so genuine and such a sweet man; my heart can’t take this.”
Now, fans are hoping that Guy will end up as the next Golden Bachelor. What are your thoughts on Joan’s final pick? Do you think Joan and Chock make a good couple? Let us know in the comment section below.
